DO'S, DONT'S OF
COIFFURES TOLD
Pcsola, hair stylist at Mann's De
partment store gives Medford wo
men a bit of advice on the "do's"
and "don'ts" of hair styles. He main
tains that achievement of true chic
oomcs from styling to type of mi
lady's coiffeur.
For women who ore Inclined to
have long thin faces. Pesola says, "Do
wear side parts with the hair worn
bock from the forehead with curls
or reverse curls that cling to the top
of the head, do wear smoothneAS at
the forehead and fullness at the
sides with low neck curls." "Don't
use long center parts with hair ar
ranged straight down along the nat
ural hair line, this only emphasizes
the length of the face and tends to
make It appear thinner."
For women with round faces and
short necks who wear glasses Pesola
says, "Don't wear hair waved straight
down the sides or let long hair ham;
down the neck." "Do dress hair back
In pompadour fashion with large
loose rlngslfts on forehead side either
waved or drawn back ending in
smootn individual curls, wear neck
line exposed by either Keeping It
tailored or hair brushed up.
Pesola has many other mothods ol
concealing poor facial structure and
has made a definite study ol styling
hair to suit the Individual. The types
which he chose for "do's" and
"don'ts" In this article are only two
of many of which he has made a
study.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20. JP) The
treasury la studying a proposal tu
consolidate the federal gift and es
tate taxes and thus raise a more pos
itive barrier to a7oldanco of the high
er tax brackets.
Under the proposal to combine -hc
gift tax and the two federal estate
taxes Into a single "transfer tax," .V.l
gifts, whether made during the don
or's life-time or passed on as estates,
would be taxed the same.
Successive gifts, whether effective
before death or afterward, would oc
lumped together to determine the
tax bracket applicable to them, and
thus they would come under a high
er bracket than If they were taxed
separately, part as gifts and part as
estates.
